is on his way home. He was well received
in Ohio, and made an excellent impression
there. His speeches were all Il good taste
and just the kind to capture a crowd.
In some quarters doubt was expressed
whether his presence on the stump in Ohio

WINGED by him that there was no foundation
for the charges of disloyalty made against the

also convinced that the Southern people are
just as much interested in promoting the
prosperity of the Union as the Northern
people
Gov. Gordon can congratulate himself on
having spiked the heaviest of the Republi-
can guns in Ohio, and though that State
may not go Democratic next Tuesday, he
made an impression that may not be with.

Gamblers Luck.

from me Chic0go inter ocean.
Many examples of luck have been cited of
late years, and the exploits of such men as
Dink Davis, Kirk Gunn and others at the card
table, have time and time again been published
i'll the papers, hut the way in which old Captain
5. did up the gamblers in Galveston in 1870, was
about as wonderful an example of what luck
Will do for q man as can be found anywhere.
The Captain who was retired steamboat man
living at Houston, frequently visited the city of
OleanderS, and whenever he did he INDUCED i'll q
bit of a spree and a tussle with the tiger. 1t
was one night in the early spring that had oc-
caSion to visit the bank presided over by Odell
& Norton, just over the Two Brothers saloon.
and going up the stairs | brushed against the
Captain, who was already, although it was still
early in the evening, about half seas over, and
insisted on my keeping him compony while he
was at the table himself dealing
as the Captain entered and buying
$50 worth of checks he began the contest.
Luck steadily favored him, and in a few
minutes he had won ESQ of the bank With a
drunken gravity the Captain now insisted that
he had had enough for one night, and that he
was going to bed. The smiling gambler tried in
every way to induce him to play longer but to
no purpose. and cashing in his checks the Cap
tain donned his evercoat and prepared to leave
the tigers lair. Jim Norton, the other partner,
had entered the room in the meantime, and had
taken his place at the roulette wheel, which
stood just inside the door of the gambling
room. AS the Captain lurched by him on his
way to the door Norton remarked
You amt going out without giving us bet,
are you, Cap?"
The Captain stopped moment, and then I'M
buttoning his overcoat he said t1ickly:
Make you just one bet, Jim" AID laying a
note all crumpled up into a little ball on the
double eagle, he said:
Just let 'er go, Jim
around spun the little ball, and when it
stopped at last the double eagle had won.
Drawing the note toward him to see how much
ne had got to pay, the double eagle calling for
y to 1, he burst into a loud oath, for the Cap
tain had laid down century note, and that
single spin of the ball had just cost the firm just
81 700 more. Slowly and sadly the surprised
gambler paid over the money, saying:
You can go now, Cap. The man that can
win S270O of us at faro. and then double it on
one bet at the wheel has too much luck to buck
again. Come in some time again when you're

Some of the Republican papers of Ohio
pretend to doubt the statement which Gov.
Gordon made in his Cincinnati speech dav
or two ago, that the white people of the
South have a very kind feeling for the col
ored people The following incident con-
firms Gov. Gordon's statement, and it i,
only one of the many that are occurring all
the time which show that the stories circr.
lated at the North to the effect that the COL
ored people of the South are ill-treated are
not true On last Sunday, near Pickens. $.
c., negro family, living on the plantation
of George w. Cox. locked their sick child in
their cabin and went to revival meeting.
During their absence the cabin caught fire,
and Mrs. Sallie Cox. who is known through.
ont the county in which the Cox plantation
is located, seeing the flames, and knowing
that the child was locked in the cabin, ran
at once 10 rescue it. The door being locked,
she found an AK and broke it in. BY this
time the flames had made great progress.
She did not hesitate, however, about com.
plotting her work Ct mercy, but rushed into
the burning building. Before she could get
the child out the roof fell, and
she was quite severely injured. She secured
the child, however, and carried it safely
from the burning cabin. She was not dan
gerously injured, but the burns she received
were painful. Her act was one of
heroism as well as of kindness.
